Is anyone else experiencing slow push mail on GMail exchange for the iPhone?

I have email pushed to my iPhone using Microsoft Exchange settings from Google Sync. I am finding there is delay in receiving my mail. This delay could range anywhere from 5 minutes to 1 hour. Is anyone else experiencing this or know of a way to correct the issue?

@chrisfellow: the 'workaround' worked for me after I followed your steps and restarted my phone, but now I am getting alerted for emails that usually skip my inbox. Things that are sent to me regularly but filtered out like bank statements, social networkings notifications, newsletters, ect... are being pushed and it kinda undermines Gmail's great filtering features... I just want to be able to use push regularly like I was able to a week ago... Hopefully someone can at least explain what has happened to Gmail's Exchange support.

Sorry to hear that. All my mail goes to my inbox so this works wells for me. It just dings twice now. Sounds like you had some rules set up of some sort. I hope google fixes the issue too as this is not optimal but at least it forces it to push in real time again. It seems like some unlucky ones are on a server that is experiencing the outage while the majority of gmail push users are not having the delay so its under the radar. not sure how to get google's attention so that know this is an actual issue and not people complaining about nothing or having their settings input incorrectly.
